- Former President Donald Trump on Sunday said he thinks there would be a “breaking point” for the public if he is sentenced to house arrest or imprisonment after he was found guilty on all counts in the hush money trial last week. Lawrence O'Donnell joins Morning Joe to discuss.

Not one day less than Cohen served.
The Judge will most likely give him a short jail sentence for about 6 months, which will be on hold whilst he files his appeal. However, IF Trump keeps spouting off and breaching the gag order, he might find the Judge less likely to award him bail pending appeal....and Donny would then have to file his appeal FROM PRISON!
Exactly 💯
Much more!..34 counts..
Somewhere I heard that the aggregate max for class E felonies is 20 years. That is 5x the max for a single count. Four years seems skimpy, eight seems about right if there is a rational way to divide the bad acts into two groups.
Trump: I'm OK with jail.
Also Trump: save me, Supreme Court!
The funny thing is, Trump's lawyers have probably told him he can't go directly to SCOTUS. It would be a 10th amendment violation. His appeals will have to wind their way through NY first. Which will take years. Even after, unless there's a constitutional or procedural issue, it's not the within the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court
Remember how he said he'd testify in his own defense? LOL
@@LaundryFaeriehe also said he’s going to jail for “us.”
No, Donny Boy….you’re (justifiably) going to jail for YOU.
@@LaundryFaerie If he refused to defend himself, how do people think he would defend YOU?
Yep He is full of fear.
I am THE PUBLIC and I would like to see you in jail....
70 million dollars fundraised from people who complain that Biden made everything unaffordable. 😂
Exactly and to a so called billionaire
JSMFH
Unbelievable what the MAGA crowd sold or pawned to give TRUMPS cult BIDEN 24 🇺🇸
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣!
We can't afford to keep forking money around the world while inviting literal terrorists across the border in mass.
I'll break into applause when Trump is jailed.
This is sad...not a cause for joy...no matter who it is happening to...
It's definitely a cause for joy, even over here in England 😊
@@theyoungone8872 it should anger you
@@MaryF-n8cAnger??? Not a chance. He had this coming after decades of criminal behaviour. He doesn’t get a free ride just cause he was a president.
We’ll be dancing in the streets!
This public will be perfectly fine with Trump getting 10 years in prison.
Let them go to jail for their fake NFT hero.
@@michaelbriganti You know, you make a good argument. Trump is dumb enough to make the same mistake 34 times, over the course of months.
@@michaelbriganti"clerical mistake" 🙄 That's rich.
@@michaelbrigantino, for something he's already been found guilty for 😂 your backing a criminal
@@michaelbriganti I agree, it's impossible to defend your cult leader. All you can really do is make stuff up, and hope to change the subject. Keep up the great work, magamuffins.
I’m not sure who he’s talking about when he says the public wouldn’t stand for it because I look forward to it
If think he's deluding himself that the 'public' are his greatest fans generally and that there would be civil war lol! That's what he WANTS. If would feed his enormous ego and make him relevant. What a piece of work!
And as I thought no one could make me more nauseated than Trump... here comes Tim Scot and Mike Johnson.
It's physically sickening, it hurts to listen to them.
Trump has probably promised them cushy new jobs 'when' he wins next time lol! There has to be some incentive to defend this monster, against all logic!
"I'm ok with it."
Whew! The convict is ok with jail. The DOJ needed his approval.
I would stand for Trump going to jail.
I would stand and cheer for Trump going to jail
I don't think it about Stormy Daniel's it's about the laws that were broken. Please start calling it what it is. The people might understand whats it really about.
Lawrence O'Donnell's storytelling events at trial captivating descriptions of invisible nuances
Better than TV thank you L. O.
It was a JURY TRIAL - the standard for fairness in our country. The FACT that he was convicted on all counts by all Jurors speak loudly, especially because he refused to testify in his own defense.
Lock him up!
lock him up..! lock him up..!
Here in UK, Trump would have long since been tried, convicted and sent to NHS Broadmoor. I s#~t you not. Our Law Lords would want him, "out of harms way" and on the "liquid cosh".
Please stop covering him already, we have enough of him. Everything that comes out of his mouth is a lie. 😡😡😡
As a long term NPR listener, I have to close my eyes when I listen to Steve Inskeep on tv because my brain is hard wired to hear his voice without a body connected to it.
Let's put this behind, Democracy and Justice wil prevail.
it's weird seeing Steve Inskeep. I only hear him on the radio
lock him up.... for gods sake
That person from NPR, Steve, made the dumbest comment on the panel. An idiotic take.
The public! Whose public?
At 9:00, Alexi McCammond suggests tweaking the talking points around the conviction. Two important angles that haven't gotten enough attention: 1) the number of convicted felons in Trump's inner circle (let alone those facing upcoming trials and/or whose law licenses are revoked or in jeopardy) and 2) how many people who actually served in Trump's administration refuse to endorse him or outright call him unfit. MSM should put that on repeat.
This was supposed to be Lawrence, why do we have to listen to Newt Gingrich acolyte Joe ScarBurro?
He needs to surrender his passport and the keys to his jet😅. He deserves everything he gets and way much more 🎉
No need he's now banned from 38 countries. The ones he's allowed into can have him.
No more golf for Donny!
@@ericawilder8531 I guess he'll have to learn how to cheat at cards.
Supreme Court has no jurisdiction over this case bud! You can not get your minions on SCOTUS to make this go away! You made this happen and now need to FINALLY be accountable instead of acting like a spoiled child
How does the republicans “fight back” against the laws?
Why do so few people think the verdict is correct? What a joke of a country.
CASE CLOSED!!!!!!!! LOCK HIM UP!!!!!!!!!
70 Million will just go to pay his legal bills.
RNC can't possibly quantify fundraising that quickly. Total propoganda and MSNBC just fell into their trap. Good going MSNBC
I could have done it! That sounds like abuse of power
Any other person would go to jail being convicted of 34 felonies. So should Trump!
I love how he threw his supporters under the bus in this interview. "I never said lock her up. They did." There's your great and ethical leader MAGA. 🤣
The public is fine with you going to jail, they can take it.
Bring it on😅
Just a reminder that Martha Stewart got a 5 month prison term for a first offence, white collar crime.
Good point
Trump should get at least 6 months - but inevitably he will turn it around to his own benefit financially......what can anyone do against this particular brand of evil?
Yes. Conspiracy, obstruction and two counts of lying…
He’s a first offender X 34.
16 months + 4 months= 20 months. The remaining 4 months would be the discount legally awarded to a sentenced criminal, or whatever New York allows. You get the idea.
The first judge to send Donald Trump to prison has guaranteed his place in American history alongside Paul Revere.
Yes, the first time in history an ex president was put on trial... and it's for trying to cover up an affair. This is a dark day in our history. The only people cheering are the Blue Hats
He and his family will require Secret Service 24/7 protection.
Just keep being America, ignore Russian threats stop with the violence and foul language, refuse to normalize soviet interference in our society.
If you have to be afraid to apply the law to an individual you live in a dictatorship already.
The Russians are coming! The Russians are coming!
Running to the Supreme Court Judges to have them co-sign on his TOTAL BS! is pathetic 🙄
But given the current make up of SCOTUS, there is a strong possibility they would co-sign.
trump is wrong…again. I guarantee that I will be very angry if trump doesn’t go to jail. LOCK HIM UP!
I wouldn't get your hopes up but yeah..
Supreme Court of Georgia has guaranteed the Georgia case won't happen before the election so yeah...
And why do you think anyone cares what unhinged radicals are angry about?
The public will break out the champagne if Trump goes to jail.
Oh imagine that: he claims he didn't say something, but there is hours of video of him saying it.
Trump lies?! What?!
Very pathetic that talking is a prison sentence.
Who is the Fascist?
@@u2mister17 Trump isn't in trouble for talking. The indictment is online. I think you should read it.
@@u2mister17 You wouldn't get to intimidate witnesses or jurors, either, Skippy.
Ask a MAGAT if he himself ever said it. They'll deny it now.
Trump's OK with prison? Me too!
Me too. Because he will become President.
Lol, only cause he thinks his supporters will go to war over it.
We're in agreement.
*Nixon: "I am not a crook."*
*Trump: "* I am a crook, but I have immunity."*
The failed X president@@joecancer6013
Mike Johnson talking about the rule of law is the ultimate hypocrisy.
Political prosecutions aren't the rule of law.
Oh please, does he realize how many Americans WANT to see justice and him in jail ... ??
That would not be justice.
Someone made the point that if inflation is causing so much hardship for MAGA how are they able to come up with 70 million??
must be from Soros
I agree with you! They don't remember that Trump's inflation was the highest ever. Biden inherited a 9% increase in inflation from Trump.
One billionaire donor has given $100M. I don't know about the breakdown of the $70M, how much of that was from just a few big donors.
Exactly
@@susandavis6841 and put our country deeper in debt, much deeper. I certainly hope these statistics come up during the debate. So glad that they will be muting the mikes when their turn is over. trump won't be able to talk on top of Biden. They may have to restrain the orange one, similar to his pal, Hannibal Lecter. Can't wait for the debates.
I’d be dancing in the street, if he got put in prison!
I'd be joining you remotely from Sweden.
Me too.
I will stand for it as a member of the "PUBLIC"-----Go to jail, convicted criminal Trump!
There will be dancing in the streets for joy if Trump goes to jail, it's long overdue.
Admit it... you're typing that from a cubicle at MSDNC
@@winstonsmith6607 Ohh those confused socialists. LOL!!!!!
@@winstonsmith6607 I agree with you - it's impossible to defend your cult leader. You can only hope to change the subject. Keep up the great work.
Admit u support an admitted r&pist maggats
Public person here. Lock him up.
Public supports jail time. He is a legend in his own mind.
People need to stop making excuses for the dumbest President in American history.
Stop making excuses and move on from this loser..
Biden won't make it till November
That was pretty harsh. A president who started zero wars was voted the worst president in history. I guess the education system is weaponized against Trump just like the justice system is
That would be Joe Biden and everybody knows it.
9 Trillion Dollar a year Public Monopoly vs One bad Hombre.
Thank you. Bring sanity back to the Republican Party.
I'm a member of the public. I'd be fine with it if he was sent to jail.
In his warped mind, the 'public' are all MAGA nuts who would riot if he went to jail, so he could feel more important. He fancies himself as the new Mandela, lol! What a PRAT.
Since when has the public decided to allow a criminal to remain free to harm the public??????????????? Is Trump not a public threat ?????????
He is in reality America's Number One Enemy.
He is with all his hate rhetoric towards the Judge, witnesses and jurors all over social media! The Judge should jail him with immediate effect as he is in breach of the gag order again!
I'm blue through and through, and for many, many reasons he's a danger to society!
BUT... convictions for falsifying business records don't really make him a danger to the public, lol
No he's not.
@@mariegotti6492he’s threatened judges, jurors, court employees. Facts truly don’t matter to republicans
Thank you, Joe, for calling Trump “the author” of the insurrection, and NOT call him “the architect” of that terrible day, like so many others in the media want to say.
I would love for Trump to go to prison forever
I don't see that happening. If it does, I will be really surprised. My reason is due to the likelihood of the wealthy getting serious jailtime.
What about Fauci? Should he go to jail as well. Have you been paying attention to the crimes he's committed. The contempt he regards the public and his smears and discrediting of better ideas for preventing the spread of the virus to the most vulnerable people, without locking down the public or shutting down the economy. Have you paid attention at all? Is Msnbc your only source of news? Do you listen to different ideas?
Five years would be enough. He probably hasnt got even that much time left.
I'm not being a jersey. Just question
11,780 days
The American people need to demand that the Roberts Court stop protecting Trump from prosecution in court cases, and stop slow walking the immunity claim decision. That is obstruction of Justice for all to see.
They should be in court as defendants.
@@alanwatterson2850 5 were chosen by a POTUS that most Americans voted against because they were unfit for the WH.POTUSes appointed and not elected by the voters should get no SCOTUS seats.
Recuse Thomas and Alito pronto!
@@daisydy5741 They're unfit to hear any case.
Guilty! And Afraid…. Asking for pardon already.
As a public American citizen I am perfectly fine with Trump recieving prison time absolutely.
next hunter biden ,,,,maybe they can be cell mates .........
I was shocked that he got in the first time in 2016. I don't take ANYTHING for granted anymore. What will SINK this country is all the people staying home sulking with their arms folded across their chests, saying, "I don't like EITHER of them, so I'm not voting for anyone this time." We can kiss democracy goodbye because of THEM. What FOOLS.
I was under the impression people voted for him as a joke, in 2016, thinking there was no chance of him being elected.
Every person is under the rule of law. No credits or excuses. He literally begs for prison with his behaviour.
By trying to claim Immunity, yes!
I could take Trump going to prison. My emotions can handle it. Thank you for asking.
I would be much more upset if he doesn't get locked up.
Lol
Stinky tRUMP needs to realise that the public doesn’t give a fig whether he goes to jail or not, the only people that cares about him is his stupid cult followers. I for one will be celebrating when he goes to jail.
Of course he should get the same sentence as Michael Cohen! Jail time!
Meanwhile Comer is drilling Dr. Fauci. Typical GOP response to the Trump foolishness.
Comer is already way down a hole, but he keeps digging.
Like a clown drilling Einstein
More waste of tax payers money
Poor Fauci, a job he never should have accepted knowing Trump the Clown was in office
What's he after fauci for now? The man retired,for Gods sake!
When he says there's a breaking point and similar statements he's actually priming his followers. It's his way of delivering an instruction. He does it all the time
Absolutely! Then again, what if he yelled "fire !", and nobody noticed?
The usual thinly-veiled call to arms to his hapless, gullible supporters lol! I trust the Judge is taking notes...
They're probably locking and loading right now.
I didn't know the American justice system was asking criminals if they were OK with incarceration now.
I'm in the public and I'd stand for it.
any other american convicted of 34 felonies would go to jail. why can't he? if we actually have respect for the rule of law and the office of the president, he must go to jail.
We, the people, ate at a breaking point of Trump still walking free and spewing lies and dangerous rhetoric.
One-third of eligible voters didn't turn out in 2020. Even the shadow of Trump will vanish if everyone votes in November.
Imagine how much better the world will be once Trump is in jail.
First time non violent offender on a made up accounting charge....he's not going to jail.
@spankyssurprise1361 if you have proof that Trump was unfairly prosecuted you should contact law enforcement immediately.
@@spankyssurprise1361 You do realize the 9 Trillion (9 Million Million) Dollars the Public Monopoly spent last year
is the working mans Private Property, right?
They could jail him.
12 contempt of court charges
34 convicted felonies
54 indicted felonies
Owes hundreds of millions in fines
Not once has shown any contrition.
All this will come into play with sentencing.
@@u2mister17 Go live in the woods, Nana, we're tired of you crying about taxes.
How ignorant are the people who donated to Trump AFTER he was convicted of mishandling money???
They are like the movie 'The Walking Dead'. No brains. They eat each other's brains.
4CULT5/Jim Jones
I don't know how true that they donated money. Trump is a pathological liar. Republicans are liars.
Trump and 3 of his kids were found guilty of robbing from a charity and they still give him Cash. Makes you think.
A lot of them are probably on welfare.
Trump needs to spend the rest of his life in prison.
I agree. I am so sick of him and his gold plated Boeing 757, citation x, his super hot wife, the $60 million triplex penthouse apartment, mar-a-lago, and his helicopters. He needs to go to jail. And his $50 million upstate property should be taken from him.
@@Martinez64All gained through years of sending other people broke and ripping off the system
Prison time is the only option. Otherwise what was the point of the trial? He also violated the gag order 11 times. The judge would be insane to let trump walk.
It will be hard for the planet to take if Trump has no consequences. Lock him up.
Serving time around the swimming pool, golfing at a 2 star resort sounds better than duh gulag where he belongs
The Donvict belongs in prison for sure. He has yet to face the consequences for his most atrocious actions.
He needs to lose more than other peoples' money.
Should have the same consequences as Hillary and the DNC that were fined by the FEC for the dossier, right? "Legal expenses" Then she uses the story as election interference. The the DOJ uses the same story to obtain a FISA warrant on her political opponent. A little too much msdnc screen time for ya. We hope you get well soon from the incitement you have endured from believing this platform.
@@CraigStellmacherwhos money did the DNC use to pay the fine from the FEC?
We will be just fine with you being locked up.
It wouldn’t bother me, Lock Him Up!! He’s so full of crap, lies like he breathes…
Vote Blue 💙🗳️💙
If he’s ok with jail, why is he whining to the SCOTUS
Babies cry wahhhh!
I love Biden - he reminds me of my Grandpa, who had wisdom and a life of careful direction. Love Biden - Vote Blue 💙
Funny, most of us would love it if he got some jail time.
How much money does Trump cost the tax payer in comparison to Carter, Bush, Clinton & Obama?
Trump is stiffing the American taxpayer again.
Including the tax breaks for the rich and corporations 😢
Trillions. He raised the deficit 7 Trillion to be exact. More than ALL of the 4 year term presidents in history TOGETHER. What for? to give tax cuts to billionaires.
He will be costing us in inflation for the rest of all our lives.
about $8 trillion
@@sonnyfaasala322 Apparently it only cost a billion to sell the US government out to oil execs.
Dear Donald - we are okay with you going to jail as well.
👍
In fact we insist, and will accept nothing less.
Well SAID!
Helena, You seem to know for a fact Biden would lose if America 🇺🇸 gets to decide!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@inmyopinionjff2624 If democrats steal the election it's civil war time ⏲️ and democrats are WAY TOO WEAK!!!!!
Lock him up
It will be a breaking point for all the same people who turned up to protest outside the Court when the case was being heard - basically, no one!!
I donated to the Biden campaign. Who is donating to Donald? Russian spies?
Even though there is no legal reason or precedent for the appeal to go there.
Billionaires seeking influence and control of rules that impact their business - sickening
@@ZHUHAI100 The American Way, at least until we get private money out of politics.
Corporate stooges, foreign interests, nihilists.
At this point it's more China. and the Saudis gave the Trump family literal Billions via Kushner for all of our nuclear secrets.
Trump needs to be locked up for contempt of court. Let him run for President from a prison cell.
Biden needs to be locked up for funding Foreign Wars with tax payer money
Go ahead he's going to win anyway
Wishful thinking! lock him up ! Lock him up, Donald Trump is the worst president of all time, it’s a fact!!! Lol
@@bobevans9955 Wrong bob wrong
Eugene V. Debs did it in 1920 imprisoned for sedition for merely speaking out against WWI. Got 914,191 (3.4% of the vote) sitting in his cell.
Yeah, don't worry about the public finding it hard to take. I'm sure we'll manage just fine.
NO ONE ABOVE THE LAW!! You do the Crimes, You do the Time ,,R.I.P donie duck!45
We’re alright with it, so lock him up.
80+ million of us reached a breaking point with Dump in 2020 and voted against him, I am sure the MAGA gravy seals will have theirs when Dump whines enough about persecution, but that point will be like the protests outside Dump's Court appearances, barely noticeable, minimal, and underwhelming.
$80+ million is a fake number. Biden stole the election and destroys our country. We the People voted Trump in 2016 and more numbers in 2020.
Lock him up, it's what the public wants.
and it's the law--he should spend time behind bars
AGREED!!
I am still voting for Trump and when he gets elected I hope to see some hearing for TREASON.
Trump getting what he deserves-being locked up-would not upset the lucid public. Don’t delude yourself, Little Donnie, into thinking your desire to be above the law is supported by the American people.
It’s what justice requires and it’s what makes sense given the crime he is convicted of.
He is okay going to jail the same way he was okay with testifying in his hush money trial.
All he can do is lie lie lie.
We need to stop calling it that. It was an election interference trial, because that is exactly what he was attempting to accomplish.
This case cannot be taken to the Supreme Court. This is not a FEDERAL matter. State Supreme Court? Yes but not Federal.
the public wants you gone, donnie!
Gee, I am so glad he's 'okay with it'! So nice to get a convict's permission to sentence him.
Get that soap-on-a-rope out of the dresser, so you'll be safe in jail while bathing. Oh, I'm hoping so that he will serve time at Rykers Island. Oh boy.
America needs to get the Trump era behind us so we as a country can move forward together in unison!
With 4 more years of dementia joe?
Or a Unified Reich?
we need a pro America president and Trump is the only one so far Joe puts America last and gives all our money to other countries and illegal immigrants.This move from Democrats will never be forgiven and this country is done time for a national divorce.
Lock Him up!!!
There will be no “breaking point”. He is no longer in a position to stand idly by his supporters are left to their grievance under the cover his corrupt government. No one showed up for his trial. Not even his wife. They dare not be but so aggressive at his sentencing. They’re no longer willing to go to jail with nor for him.
The vast majority of the public are absolutely fine if not delighted for trump to go to prison
The verdict was correct and fair. Just hearing the evidence and witness testimony was overwhelming against Trump.
Are you serious right now?
@@mariegotti6492 Are you blind now? The greatest con artist in American history got caught for the 1st time! Americans should be ashamed it took so long!
Fight back within the rule of law? I am confused. The rule of law has spoken and it is not being respected!!!!
He's ok with jail in the same way he was ok with taking the stand in his own defence - ie he's a s**t-scared coward.
I think he's doing that thing we did as kids and siblings,"Didn't hurt me! Can't feel it." Nah nah!
Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time.
The public wants you to pay like everyone else!
Trump for prison 20-24.
